Abstract

We prove the multiplicity bounds conjectured by Herzog-Huneke-Srinivasan and Herzog-Srinivasan in the following cases: the strong conjecture for edge ideals of bipartite graphs, and the weaker Taylor bound conjecture for all quadratic monomial ideals. We attach a directed graph to a bipartite graph with perfect matching, and describe operations on the directed graph that would reduce the problem to a Cohen-Macaulay bipartite graph. We determine when equality holds in the conjectured bound for edge ideals of bipartite graphs, and verify that when equality holds, the resolution is pure. We characterize bipartite graphs that have Cohen-Macaulay edge ideals and quasi-pure resolutions.

$\mathrm{v}$-numbers of powers of edge ideals of cubic circulant graphs

In this paper, we provide the exact formula for the $\mathrm{v}$-number of powers of the edge ideal of a cubic circulant graph $C_{2n}(a,n)$ with $1\le a<n$.

On Hankel Determinantal Matroids

We initiate a study of the algebraic matroid associated to the ideal generated by the $(r+1)$-minors of a Hankel matrix of variables. We prove that this matroid is uniform, that is, a coordinate projection from the corresponding Hankel determinantal variety is generically finite if and only if it preserves at least $2r$ anti-diagonals. For such projections, we establish bounds on the degree. These results are of significance to the problem of Hankel low-rank matrix completion.

On the Rees, Dilworth and Matsumura number

In this paper we study three numerical invariants of local rings: the Rees number, the Dilworth number, and the Matsumura number. These quantities measure, respectively, the minimal lengths of certain cyclic modules, the maximal numbers of generators of ideals, and a parameter-based analogue in higher dimension. We construct a non-exact local complete-intersection ring over $\mathbb{F}_2$, thereby providing a negative answer to a question of Matsumura on the exactness of zero-dimensional complete intersections. We also present a family of artinian Gorenstein local rings over a field of characteristic zero that are exact, making progress on a question of Watanabe. Finally, answering a further question of Matsumura, we introduce and study the Matsumura number and the class of homologically exact rings, which extend the notion of exactness beyond the one-dimensional case.
